Liked: Staff & service
Beds were crazy noisy - husband lifted mattress and the mattress sits in 1/8-1/4 inch paneling/ply wood that is screwed to framing. Owner said no one ever complained about it - Our entire room woke every time someone moved in the bed so we all slept horrible. There was some mold you could see in the windows etc, pretty outdated. But it served the purpose we needed it for.

Nice clean an

We’s been wanting to stay here for 30 years, and took a long weekend to do so. The Hotel was nice, clean, quiet and comfortable. We wanted to avoid Lake Placid due to the Can Am Rugby games and found this location perfect. It was close to Whiteface and its trails, close to alot of fishing spots, and had a clean pool and recliners to relax with at the end of an active day. The Fly shop is also amazing, and staffed by friendly and knowledgeable staff. Calling the Hotel a “Resort” is a bit of a stretch, but for the $$ we were happy overall.

Unfortunately, we were unaware that the restaurant would not open till Wednesday and was not prepared for that. We brought our dog, so the restaurant would have been beneficial for our stay. Since he go where we go. There is no access to the creek/river. Steep hill. For our vk that was not a wise choice for us staying at HT

Stayed two nights while on a May 7-9 ADKS fishing trip. Check in was super easy, room had everything I needed for a comfortable stay and I enjoyed my stay there. Beds were clean and comfortable, bathroom was spacious, unlike some other hotels, and I loved the shower that had plenty of hot water after a cold, rainy day on the river. While there was no microwave in my room there is one available in the office, which I used a couple of times. I would and will definitely stay at the Hungry Trout again.

Hungry Trout is a basic motel but very nicely kept. The room was outdated but very clean and comfortable. Trout fishing right out back. Love the keyless entry - not to worry about a check-in time. We have stayed a few times now and will definately go back.
